http://www.webmd.com/asthma/defauhttp://www.diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/lt.htm http://www.aanma.org/ Allergy and Asthma Network, Mothers of Asthmatics is a site sponsored by parents of children with asthma and allergies. On it you can find related articles, ask a nurse, and advice for school and home. There are sections called Nancy's blogs and Ask a Nurse. There is a free storybook about Breathless Bethany Buttercup that is great to share with your child if they have asthma. This would also be a good book for a classroom to help others learn about asthma and understand more about those who suffer from asthma.

This web site has links for health topics from A to Z. Asthma is described as a chronic disease that affects your airways. Asthma affects the inside walls of your airways causing them to become sore and swollen. That makes them very sensitive, and they may react strongly to things that you are allergic to or find irritating. When your airways react, they get narrower and your lungs get less air. This can cause wheezing, coughing, chest tighness, and trouble breathing, especially early in the morning or at night. This site also provides links to related topics, basics(latest news, diagnosis/symptoms,treatments, prevention/screening), research (clinical trials, research, and journal articles), learn more, reference shelf, and links for women and seniors.
This web site discusses the warning signs of asthma in infants and toddlers. It was interesting to learn that the majority of infants who die from asthma do so because their physician and parents do not recognize early warning signs of asthma. Unfortunately, asthma symptoms in infants and toddlers are not as recognizable as symptoms in teens and adults. Submitted by Cathy Brown
